Chapter 7 - 7 - 'Let's Fight'

Long Ki shook the woman again. "Raijin are you sure she is not dead. She looks like one though. What's with her dusty face? I don't like touching dirty people" he let go of the woman.

"Master there is no lake or water source to take bath here ahh. Stop finding fault in everything" Raijin had a soft spot for the woman. She was always persistent and never gave up. He did not know what the light that distracted her but for a second she seems worried.

"Raijin. Raijin, I kept calling you. Why are you so distracted?" said long ki as he waved his hand in front of the pup. "Hey, what to do with her now?"

He squatted still and gazed into her.

"Maybe.... maybe we can take her home" Raijin hesitated as he suggested this. "Home!!! No we can't do that. My mom is already anxious to get me married to any girl she can find. If I bring her home now, my mom will marry me off instantly."

So both Long Ki and Raijin just continues staring at her trying to figure out what to do. On the other realm Xia che was still in pain.

The stupid snake bit him and did not let go. It hurts so much that his vision was clouded. He just fainted near the rock.

Long Aotian could taste the blood in his mouth. 'Blood? Wasn't I eating seafood in my dream? Why do I taste blood?' he thought as he tried to open his eyes. He could sense his cultivation had been sealed and it had reduced to immortal sense. He looked around his cave and found out that he was actually in someone's clothes. And his jaws were locked in flesh.

'Oh bit someone.' He let go of the flesh in his mouth and tried squirming out of his confined space. Bright light assaulted is eyes. he saw a man lying faint on the ground. 'Ehh, why is this man lying on the floor? Did I poison him?' I tried to recover my memory after my fall.

As the snake was sitting and thinking, Xia che woke up with a start. He found out that the ugly snake had gained consciousness and it was currently looking around. His eys turned red with anger. 'This little piece of shit, I had been constipated for six months because of him and this is how he repays me' was his precise thoughts.

'This man, why is he looking at me in anger ah. I didn't do anything' the snake thought as it gazed at the crayfish.

"You…. Why did you bite my jj. I took such good care of you. I was even constipated for months ah.""oww oww it still hurts" the crayfish started tearing up. Xia che had never been in so much pain before.

'jj ? Why on earth would I touch your dirty thing ah' Long Aotian retorted in anger in his heart. He gave the dirty beast a disdainful stare.

"Touch it? You were sleeping on it. For six month might I add? Six whole months I was unable to pee" Xia che gestured to his pants as he was making a point. 'This ugly snake how dare he call him dirty'.

Dread filled his head as Long Aotian thought of such possibility. He did wake up in someone's clothes and he did by chance had flesh in his mouth. He would have never imagined it to be this dirty beasts jj. 'I bit someone's jj. I.....I put it in my mouth. I tasted it with my tounguee...' the snake fainted again in anger.

Xia che lifted the limp snake from his lap and took a good look at it. The snake had jet-black scales with some of them golden scales peeking from in-between. Yukiya had once told him that golden scales only appear when the beast has dragon bloodline in it. "Hmm this ugly snake has the bloodline of a dragon? Maybe he bit the dragons jj too" as he put the limp snake in his sleeve and went about his day.

Long Aotian woke up after a while. He found himself in someone's clothes again. He panicked and squirmed out. 'Thank god it was only a sleeve this time' he thought as he squirmed out of the beasts sleeve.

"Oh ugly snake, you are awake again? I got some gojiberries do you want?" he said as he handed some dried up berries to me. 'This nasty crustacean, how dare he give me this peasant's meal' Long Aotian thought as he flicked his outstretched palms with his tail.

"Oh fine suit yourself. Just so you know you are being extremely ungrateful" the crayfish said as he left the snake on a rock near the brook. he started sorting through the things by his river. He packed some clothes and some food for his journey. After finishing his packing he turned to the snake "Hey little snake, I am going on a journey to the far lands of Suikal. I am going to search for someone and the journey is going to be extremely dangerous. Are you willing to come with me?" But the snake just slithered off the rock and left slithering into a small bush.

"I take that you reject my offer" he pouted towards the bush. Disappointed he started his journey on his own. He really was lonely when Yukiya left him; but the little snake's presence gave him a vague sense of comfort.

He did not own a magic chariot like Yukiya so he started his journey on feet. Long Aotian on the other had slid away into the forest, as far away from the dirty crustacean. He slithered for a while but his body was extremely injured to travel now. Forest debris sliced into the delicate underside of the little dragon. Small mole rats living under the roots of Gillian tree smelt the blood in the air. They started scurrying towards the injured dragon.

the group of rats confronted the little dragon by blocking its path. 'Che, these little creatures think they can defeat me' he disdained in his thought. 'if a fight is what they want, then a fight is what I will give'

He slid out his claws that were tucked into the skins flaps.. 'lets fight' the dragon told in his thought as he stood in a fighting stance.
